Prime fossil hunting. We dated the folsom point culture by an arroyo find after flash floods exposed an ancient bison in the banks. I casually walked up one near Trinidad, Colorado and found a bunch of mediocre plant fossils. With proper tools I could have found a real gem in a few hours.

You know that it's neat because of the way that it is!
Spam your special interest, nature, into the void so that other nature nerds can also enjoy it.
We're vegan 'round these parts, so please don't post anything about living creatures in captivity, harm or interference with animals, dead bodies, etc.

Oh super interesting. Maybe I can find some of these tools around here. I probably can find remnants of the Apache-Mexican war around here too with a metal detector
